The Lord’s Supper
We celebrate the Lord's Supper on the last Sunday of every month. If you are a member of Providence Baptist Church or a baptized member of another gospel-believing church, we invite you to celebrate Communion with us using the prepackaged elements located inside each of the three entrances to the Worship Center.
Children in Church, Family Room, and Kids' Ministry
Providence offers Kids' Ministry for the Sunday Worship Service. Kids worship with their families until just before the sermon. At that point, kids leave the Worship Service for age-appropriate gospel-centered curriculum. Kids will rejoin the Worship Service for the final two songs of the service. Simply check your kids in at the Kiosk in the Church Foyer prior to service.
Providence also welcomes children of all ages to worship with their families during the entirety of the worship service. Every sound and movement are joyful reminders that children are a precious gift from the Lord.
We also provide a Family Room for younger children and nursing mothers.
Lunch After Church
We invite everyone to lunch in the Green Room on the first and third Sunday of every month. Kids are welcome and can also play in the Gym.
Prayer After Lunch
We invite everyone to prayer in the Green Room after lunch on the first and third Sunday of every month. This is a time of corporate prayer where we pray for the spread of the gospel, the spiritual and numerical growth of the church--local and universal--and for each of us to grow in Christ-likeness.
Giving
Offering boxes will be available to the left and right of the main entrance of the church. You may also give online or mail your gifts to Providence Baptist Church, 8980 Brook Road, McLean, VA, 22102.
